if there is anyway you can upgrade to economy plus on TK do it. Best EP out there
At check-in or at the gate.
You can say what you think when you think what you say.

Even at 58k it would still be worth it. Other than winter thats the cheapest way

Book with UA on LH. No YQ. To PRG buy a cheap ticket. PRG to NYC try via ZRH, WAW, etc. with AC for no YQ
If you can find a UA flight nonstop to FRA then it may be worth booking it via AC & then buying a ticket to BUD depending how cheap it is.

Bottom line is to aim for these airlines via AC. UA, LX, LO etc. there may be another cheaper way of booking this via ANA RT if you can find UA availability to Europe RT & add smaller legs to the trip with $. May be a good idea
